About Casey

Casey helps educational leaders create people-first organizations where individuals want to be, thrive, contribute, and grow — all while achieving results. She draws upon 15 years of K-12 experience as a teacher, literacy specialist, and leader in school administration.

Across her career, Casey has:

  • As a director of curriculum and learning, led a 4,000-student school district to a fully virtual learning model over four days in March 2020, ensuring continued learning, support, and connections for students and families.
  • Completed research on the use of improvement science methodologies in K-12 education and then applied her learnings, leading to the reversal of a two-year declining trend in reading proficiency rates in a school district.
  • Led the creation of a communitywide early literacy project designed to link community and educational organizations to develop a language- and literacy-rich environment for children from birth to 3 years old.

Prior to joining Huron Studer Education, Casey served as the director of curriculum and learning for the School District of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. Casey has served as a high school social studies teacher, a literacy specialist, an associate principal, an elementary principal, and a high school principal.

Casey holds a bachelor's degree from Marquette University and a master’s degree in literacy from Concordia University Wisconsin. She completed her doctorate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in educational leadership and policy analysis. Her research interest is the value of improvement science to education, with a specific focus on positive deviance methodology. Casey has an orange belt in Six Sigma for education.
